Consign Your Curves 2015 - Part 2
Over the past weekend I was in my hometown of Guelph, selling my closet at the 3rd annual Consign Your Curves event. It was a jam packed Saturday, full of meet and greets, new and old friends, great deals and lots of body positivity!
I spent the day organizing my rack and chatting with shoppers about the pieces I had for sale and different ways to wear things. Being a veteran of sales like this, I knew what pieces would be popular. It was no surprise that my edge to edge rack was almost sold out be the end of the sale, leaving behind only a small assortment of random things.
With founder of CYC Carlie
I wanted to give a big shout out to Carlie, the organizer and founder of Consign Your Curves. It was such an amazing success! The turn out was bigger both in sellers (40!) and shoppers than ever before! The day saw some awful weather (rain storm anyone?), and it did get a little hot in the venue, but nothing could keep a plus size girl from a killer deal! I even snapped up a great pair of black leather on black suede boots, that had never been worn for only $20!
I want to send out a huge thank you to everyone that shopped my closet! I’m so happy my pieces, both from retailers and a few Jessica Biffi originals, went to fabulous homes and will have a new fashionable life!
Look out for events like this in your area. It’s a great way to connect to your local plus size community and who among us doesn’t love to shop at a sweet discount?!

Knowing the day would be busy, physical and hot, I opted to wear something very comfortable, but still chic. I am so completely obsessed over this onesie! It’s the perfect combination of function and fashion! Here I paired it with a sheer panel and crochet top, for light layering. Keep an eye out for another post coming shortly featuring this piece in another colour (obviously I got more than one!) and different ways to wear it.
